Abstract
A fuel cell system includes a fuel cell stack having a cathode and an anode, a humidifier configured to humidify air that is to be supplied to the cathode, an air supply unit configured to supply the air to the humidifier, and a controller. The controller is configured to adjust a flow rate of the air supplied from the air supply unit, based on a supply of the humidifier, to prevent flooding of the fuel cell stack.
